If your account balance is below $2,500, the Dividend Rate and Annual Percentage Yield listed for this account will be one percentage point below the Share Savings account rate in the Rate Schedule. If your account balance is $2,500 or greater, the Dividend Rate and Annual Percentage Yield listed for the Premier Money Market account will apply. Each dividend Rate will apply only to that portion of the account balance within each balance range.

Terms of 6 months and 1 year–90 days dividends.
Terms of 2 years and longer–180 days dividends.
